*********

Swara is sitting near her bed holding her father's only pic she is having... Blocking all her mother's call she keeps on talking...

Swara: I'm sorry papa... If it hadn't been me you would have been with us right now...!! I'm such a terrible...

But before she could complete she hears some noise but guessing it to be her imagination she ignores it and looks back at her father's pic... A few tear drops escape from her eyes... As soon as she opens her mouth to say something again she hears the sound again... On realizing that its coming from near the window she wipes off her tears and gets up to go near the window...

She opens the window and gets shocked... Her eyes and mouth wide open...

Swara: (shocked) Sanskaar...!! What are you doing here...??
Sanskaar: Umm... I guess right now I'm hanging from your window...!!
Swara: That I can also see...!!  But why the hell are you hanging off from My Window...?!?!
Sanskaar: Oh... Just recently I have developed a new hobby of hanging off the people's windows...!! It's quite fun and adventurous...!! Wanna try...?!?!
Swara: Stop joking Sanskaar...!! What are you doing down there...??
Sanskaar: Checking out girls...!! Your window is my favorite place to do so...!! The view from up here is quite fantastic...!!
Swara: Seriously Sanskaar...!! Don't you have any other thing to say or do...?!?! But how did you reach up here...?? My room is on second floor...!!
Sanskaar: Actually I have a chartered plane which just dropped me at your window...!!
Swara: (confused) What...??
Sanskaar: Stupid... Of course I came using the pipes...!!
Swara: (shocked) Pipes...?!?! But why pipes...??
Sanskaar: I'm allergic to stairs...!! So I have started climbing pipes to reach to higher floors...!!
Swara: You are allergic to stairs...?!?! Since when...?!?!
Sanskaar: God...!! You are unbelievable...!!
Swara: You are joking again...!! Right...?!?!
Sanskaar: Finally you got it...!! Yayy celebration time... Ms Tube light got it right...!!
Swara: Excuse me...!! Did you just called me a tube light...?!?!
Sanskaar: Of course...!! That title suits you the most but can we have this question-answer session later...!! I'm actually not liking this feeling of hanging like a bat very much...!! So if you don't mind can you move a bit aside so that I can get in...?!?!
Swara: No... Go back the way you came...!! I don't want to talk to anyone now...!!
Sanskaar: Oh My God...!! What kind of best friend are you...?? What if I go back and slip from the pipe...?!?! What if my leg gets broken... Or my hand gets fractured or... Freaking Shit...!! What if I fall down and my nose gets broken...?!?! What will happen to my absolutely charming, gorgeous and handsome face...?!?!
Swara: (interrupts) Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: (continues ranting) How will I look with a distorted nose...?!?!
Swara: Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: What if my teeth get broken too...??
Swara: (shouts) Sanskaar...!! Shut up...!! (Sanskaar stops and looks at her) Come in...!!
Sanskaar: (grins widely) Really...!!
Swara: Do I have another option...?? No... Right...?!?! So come in before I change my mind...!!

She forwards her hand towards him... Sanskaar smiles and takes her hand...

Sanskaar: (entering inside the room) From next time if you plan to shut your door like that... I suggest before that you should shift some other house... One in which your room would be at ground floor...!!

Swara: (crossing her arms across her chest) What are you doing here...?? You are supposed to be at college right now...??

Sanskaar smiles at her and lies on her bed stretching his arms and legs wide...

Sanskaar: (resting his head on the bed post) I was wondering where did my Ms. CCPA went when she was supposed to take me to the college in the morning... And later I found that she won't be coming to the college today... So I decided to give her a visit and that's why I'm here...!!

Swara: You shouldn't have come here...!!
Sanskaar: And should have left you locked inside the room... Right...?!?!
Swara: You don't know anything Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: So do you want to talk about it...?!?!
Swara: What's there to talk about...?? That how much terrible as a daughter I am...!!

Sanskaar gets up from the bed and walks towards her... He stands in front of her and looks at her...

Swara: Why are you staring at me...??
Sanskaar: I'm trying to imagine how your father must be feeling seeing that his beloved daughter behaves worse than a kid every year...!!
Swara: (teary eyes) It was all my fault, my childishness, my naivety that he is not here with us...

She chokes at the end of the sentence and starts crying keeping her hand on her mouth...!! Sanskaar instantly wraps his arms around her engulfing her a tight hug...

Sanskaar: (caresses her hairs) Shh...!! It's alright...!! Even though I don't know what makes you feel like that but I'm sure it wasn't your fault...!!
Swara: (breaking the hug) No Sanskaar it was my fault...!!

Sanskaar holds her hand and takes her to the bed... She sits on the edge of the bed and Sanskaar sits beside her...

Swara: Do you want to talk about it...?!?!

Swara: (shakes her head) No...!! I don't think I can...!!
Sanskaar: Don't worry about it...!! Tell me whenever you want... Just remember that I'll always be there...!!

Swara nods her head...

Sanskaar: Now I'm going to open the door...!! Your mother is very much worried...!!

He gets up to go but Swara holds his hand...

Swara: Sanskaar... Will you still be my friend if I'll tell you what happened that day...?!?!
Sanskaar: (smiles and sits back) No matter what happened back at that time but the biggest truth of today is that you are my best friend...!! (cups her face) and nothing in this world is going to change that...!!

Swara gives him a small smile, closes her eyes and starts speaking after taking a deep breath...

Swara: You know Sanskaar we were not always this financially challenged like we are now...!! Even though we didn't had very much but still we had a pretty good life...!! Papa had a nice job at one of the law firms as he was a lawyer and everything was going on very well...!! Papa was well known for his honesty...!! Five years ago... Papa, Maa, Yash and I, we all went for a party... Yash was just two years old then...!! I was in eighth standard... and it was one of my classmate's father's party...!! We were not on very good terms, she always teased me about my looks... but still I went there as Papa wanted me to go...!! All the while during the party I kept sticking to Maa but when Maa went to meet some of the ladies along with Yash, I was left alone...!! Getting the time my classmate came there with some of her friends and started teasing me... They gave some very harsh comments... So on our way back I kept crying complaining why am I not beautiful like all other girls...!! You know I also wanted others to say that I look beautiful...!! Papa was driving the car at that time and Maa was sitting next to him holding Yash... I was the only one sitting at the back seat...!! Maa kept on convincing me asking me to stop crying and so did Papa and while driving he turned back to say something but just the next moment a truck came from the other side and since Papa was trying to console me at that time that we couldn't avoid the accident...!! The truck dashed at the driver's side of our car and I saw my father go away right....

She chokes again trying to hold a sob... Her throat turns soar...

Sanskaar: (hugs her and caresses her arms) Its okay... You don't have to continue...!! I don't want to hear more and it was not your fault...!!
Swara: But I want to tell you everything...!!
Sanskaar: Go on then... I'm here only...!!

Swara wipes off her tears and starts again...

Swara: I saw Papa go right in front of my eyes...!! I saw him looking at me before his eyes get closed...!! And next thing I remember that everything went dark...!! I woke up on hospital after almost one complete day and the first thing I saw was Maa standing in front of my bed with Yash in her arms... But not Papa...!! On asking I found out that they have been waiting for me to get conscious to complete the last rituals...!! After that I never cared about how I looked... Basically it was the thing that took my father away from me...!!
Sanskaar: (cups her face) Swara it was not your fault... It was just an accident...!! Everyone has to leave this world and go away...!! It's just that uncle left a bit early than expected...!! But if one person has left our life does that mean we shut out everyone else who means everything to us...?!?! No... Right...?!?! Just look at your mother and Yash... He is so young...!! He doesn't even have any proper memory of your Father... Still he is out there supporting your Mother...!! Is it right that you are sitting in this room ignoring everyone who is waiting eagerly for you to come out...?!?!

Swara cries bitterly and rests her head on his chest... Sanskaar wraps his arms around her in a manner to comfort her...

Swara: I'm sorry Sanskaar...!! I never wanted it to be that way...!! It's just that I don't know what to do...!! It was too much for me take in that I'm the reason that my father is no more in the world...!!
Sanskaar: Swara, you know why your father looked at you before he closed his eyes...?!?!
Swara: (still leaning on his chest) Why...?!?!
Sanskaar: Because he knew that if he leaves you are going to be the support pillar of the family...!! He knew that no matter what happens you will never get broken...!! Probably he loved you the most...!! Maybe he never considered you as a daughter maybe he considered you as his eldest son...!! (he feels Swara sigh and sob against his chest) And trust me Swara you have proved yourself worthy of the trust he had on you...!! He must be feeling proud of you up there in the heaven except for today when you are behaving like this and not even going to the temple for the rituals...!!
Swara: I'm sorry...!! (shifts her head from his chest on his shoulder)
Sanskaar: (wipes off her tears and smiles) Now stop apologizing...!!
Swara: (nods her head) Can I ask you something...??
Sanskaar: What is it...??
Swara: Why are you so good to me...?? I mean we have known each other for hardly two and a half months...!! Then why...?!?!
Sanskaar: I don't know...!! Umm... Maybe I like you...!!

Swara eyes widen on hearing this and she gets up from his shoulder with a jerk...

Swara: (screams) What...?!?!
Sanskaar: Geez Swara...!! Relax...!! There is nothing to shout...!! It's not like I'm proposing you to marry me...!!
Swara: (shouts again) What...?!?!
Sanskaar: God...!! Why are you shouting so much...?? I didn't knew that marrying me will be so shocking for you...!!
Swara: Do you even realize what you just said...??
Sanskaar: What...??
Swara: You said that you like me...!! I mean how can a guy like you 'like' a girl like me...??
Sanskaar: See...!! I told you that I'm pretty talented...!!
Swara: Now from where did that come from...??
Sanskaar:  You are really a Tube light...!! My title suits you perfectly...!! What's the problem if a guy like me 'likes' a girl like you...!! After all we are friends...!!
Swara: (to herself) Great Swara...!! He is saying that he likes you as a friend and what your duffer brain is thinking...!! God... this is so embarrassing...!!
Sanskaar: Did you just say anything...??
Swara: Huhh...!! Nothing...!!
Sanskaar: Good then...!! Now go and get ready...!!
Swara: But ready for what...??
Sanskaar: Excuse me...!! In case if you have forgotten then let me remind you, you are still my Ms. CCPA and that means you are obliged to take me wherever I want...!! And be thankful of my generosity that I'm not cutting your salary for being absent for half of the day...!!
Swara: But where are we going...??
Sanskaar: Recently my best friend Ms. Tube light got her brain start functioning properly and right now she needs to go to the temple... and being her best friend it's my responsibility to be there when she needs me...!! Got it...?!?! So, come on get ready...!!

He gets up...

Swara: But Sanskaar...
Sanskaar: Get ready before I change my decision and cut off your salary for the entire the day...!! (he opens the door)
Swara: Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: (turns) What...?!?!
Swara: (smiles) Thank you...!!
Sanskaar: The pleasure is all mine babes...!!

Swara rolls her eyes and Sanskaar chuckles... He turns to go but stops when Swara calls him back...

Swara: Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: Now what Swara...?? We are getting late...!!

Swara hesitates for a moment before speaking...

Swara: Umm...!! At that time...
Sanskaar: What time...?!?!
Swara: Tch...!! Let me come first...!!
Sanskaar: Okay...!! Sorry... Go on...!!
Swara: (twisting her fingers and avoiding eye contact with Sanskaar) At that time when you said that you like me... You meant like a friend, right...!!
Sanskaar: (smiles seeing her nervousness) What do you expect...?!?!
Swara: (looks at him) That's not an answer to my question...!!
Sanskaar: Umm...!! Maybe not...!!
Swara: (shocked) What...??
Sanskaar: (smiles and winks at her) Get ready before I deduct your entire salary...!!

He leaves the room and Swara goes to get ready...

Sanskaar comes outside and sees Simmy sitting on the couch... He goes near them and smiles...

Sanskaar: She is coming...!!
Simmy: (shocked) Really...!! But how...??
Sanskaar: Sanskaar's magic...!! (smiles) Get the things ready for the pooja we'll be leaving in 10 minutes...!!

Just then Swara comes...

Swara: Maa...!!

Simmy looks at her and gets teary eyes... She pulls Swara into a hug...

Swara: (crying) It wasn't my fault right...!!
Simmy: It wasn't your fault baby...!! It was just an accident...!! But it's good that you have finally realized it...!!
Swara: (breaks the hug and looks at Sanskaar) Sanskaar made me realize it...!!
Simmy: (smiles looking at Sanskaar)  Thank you...!!
Sanskaar: Now my lovely ladies... I think it's enough of the 'Thanking' and all...!! Now get ready... we have to go somewhere...!!

Both of them nod and later all leave for the temple...

------------------------.

After coming back... At night... Sanskaar is about to leave after dinner and Swara comes to see him off...

Swara: Thank you Sanskaar...!!
Sanskaar: Again a thank you...!! Seriously Swara you should stop thanking me otherwise I don't know how many 'thank yous' you will be giving me in future... Because let me tell you that I'm not going to leave you anytime later or sooner...!! We have quite lot of time ahead of us...!!

Swara smiles... Just then Yash comes...

Sanskaar: (smiles) What's up champ...??
Yash: Are we really going...??
Sanskaar: Obviously...!! A man never goes back on his words...!! So, how about tomorrow...??
Yash: (grins widely) Yes...!! Tomorrow is Saturday and me and Swara di both have a off...!!
Sanskaar: Alright then I'll come to pick you both up in morning...!!
Swara: (looking at both of them confused) But where are we going...??
Sanskaar: Men's secret...!! We won't tell you...!! Right Champ...?!?!
Yash: (gives him a Hi-fi) Yes...!! Right...!!
Swara: But why I don't know anything about this plan...??
Sanskaar: Simple...!! Because we never told you...!!

Both Yash and Sanskaar give out a laugh seeing Swara's expression...

Swara: Fine...!! If you are not going to tell me then I'm not coming...!!
Sanskaar: No...!! We are not telling you anything and you are coming with us...!!
Swara: No way...!!
Sanskaar: You know me Babes...!! You can't say a 'No' to me...!!
Swara: And what are you going to do if I say a No...!! Because that's what I'm saying... No...!!
Sanskaar: Really...!! Trust me Swara... If I can enter your room without opening the door then trust me I can bring you out also...!!
Swara: Really...!! We'll see...!!
Sanskaar: We'll see...!!

Swara leaves from there...

Swara: Yash...!! You are coming or not...??
Yash: Coming...!!
Sanskaar: Champ, don't tell her where we are going...?? Promise...!!
Yash: Promise...!!
Sanskaar: Good...!! See you tomorrow...!! Good night...!!
Yash: Good Night...!!

Sanskaar leaves and Yash runs back inside his room...

--------------------------.

Next day... Swara is all determined not to go with Sanskaar and Yash so she pretends to be asleep...!! She looks at the clock and finds that it's 9:30 am...!! A few minutes later she hears some noises coming from outside her room and she realizes that Sanskaar has arrived...!! Just the next moment she finds the knob of the door turn... she quickly pulls the blanket over her head...!! She could feel Sanskaar enter the room and walk towards her bed...!! But the next moment she finds her blanket yanked away and she is thrown over someone's shoulder upside down...

Swara: (shouts) Sanskaar...!! Put me down...!!

Sanskaar doesn't listen and takes her out of the room...

Swara: Mr. Sanskaar Maheshwari...!! Put me down this instant...!! Now...!!

Just then she realizes that Sanskaar is taking her towards the washroom...

Swara: Why are you taking me there...?? No... no... no... no...!!

Sanskaar opens the door of the washroom and makes Swara stand there... He stands in front of her and turns on the shower... Swara looks at him for the first time in the day and finds him grinning widely standing at a safe distance where is not getting wet... and she on the other side is completely drenched...

Sanskaar: (smiling) Good Morning Ms. CCPA...!!

Episode ends...!!

Precap: Trip to wonderland...!!
